Mounting the StereoNOTICE

Do not use the stereo as a template when drilling the mounting holes because this may damage the display and void the warranty. You must only use the included template to correctly drill the mounting holes.Be careful when cutting the hole to mount the stereo. There is only a small amount of clearance between the case and the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could compromise the stability of the stereo after it is mounted.Do not apply grease or lubricant to the screws when fastening the stereo to the mounting surface. Grease or other lubricants can cause damage to the stereo housing.

Before you can mount the stereo in a new location on the mounting surface, you must select a location in accordance with the mounting considerations.1 Adhere the template to the mounting surface.2 Drill a hole inside the corner of the dashed line on the template.3 Cut the mounting surface along the inside of the dashed line on the template.

4 Ensure the mounting holes on the stereo line up with the pilot holes on the template.5 Using an appropriately sized drill bit for the mounting surface and screw type, drill the pilot holes.6 Remove the template from the mounting surface.7 Complete an action:

• If you are installing the stereo in a dry location, place the included mounting gasket on the back of the stereo.

• If you are installing the stereo in a location that is exposed to water, apply silicone-based marine sealant on the mounting surface around the cutout.

NOTICEDo not install the included mounting gasket if you applied sealant to the mounting surface. Using sealant and the mounting gasket may reduce water resistance.

8 If you will not have access to the back of the stereo after installation, make the necessary wiring connections.

9 Secure the stereo to the mounting surface using the included screws .You should hand-tighten the screws when securing the stereo to the mounting surface to avoid over tightening them.

10 Snap the screw covers in place .

Connection ConsiderationsThe stereo must be connected to power, either through the boat ignition or an external switch, speakers, and media input sources to function correctly. You should carefully plan the layout of the device, the NMEA 2000®

network, the speakers, and your input sources before making any connections.

Power ConnectionWhen connecting the stereo to power, you must connect the yellow, red, and black wires to the power source. The yellow and red wires have different functions, and the method you use to connect them to power depends on how you plan to use the stereo on your vessel.Yellow wire

• This wire provides power to the stereo.• This wire should be connected through a 15 A circuit breaker, if one is available on the vessel.

NOTICEIf a 15 A circuit breaker is not available on the vessel, you must connect this wire to power through a 15 A fuse (not included).

• This wire provides power to the stereo at all times, and it will drain the battery even when the stereo is not in use. You should install a manual switch on this wire if a 15 A circuit breaker is not available on the vessel, or if you cannot toggle the breaker to remove power to the stereo when storing the vessel.

• If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 14 AWG (2.08 mm2) wire. For extensions longer than 1 m (3 ft.), use 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) wire.

Red wire• This wire can be connected to the same power source as the yellow wire through the ignition or through a

manual switch. This enables you to turn the stereo on and off automatically when you turn the vessel on and off, or when you activate the switch.

• Using this wire to turn the stereo on and off behaves in the same way as using the power button on the stereo to turn it on and off. It is not necessary to connect this wire to a switch if you plan to toggle the power using the power button on the stereo or using a connected chartplotter or remote control. This wire must be connected to turn the stereo on.

• When you turn off the stereo using this switch or the power button, it enters a standby mode that allows the stereo to start up again faster than if you switch the power off using the yellow wire. When it is in standby mode, the stereo uses up to 100 mA, and you must turn off power to the stereo on the yellow wire thorough the circuit breaker or manual switch when you are not using the vessel to avoid draining the battery.

• NOTICEYou must connect this wire to power through a 1 A fuse (not included), whether or not you connect it to the ignition or manual switch.

• If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 22 AWG (0.33 mm2) wire.Black wire

• This is the ground wire, and you must connect it to the negative terminal of the power source or to a common ground.

• If it is necessary to extend this wire, use 14 AWG (2.08 mm2) wire. For extensions longer than 1 m (3 ft.), use 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) wire.


Connecting to Power Without Using an Ignition SwitchThis method of connection is used most often on larger vessels and on vessels with multiple networked stereos and other marine devices. For these installations, a faster startup time is typically less critical, and it is more effective to use the breaker or a dedicated switch on the electrical panel to turn off the stereo and ensure that no unexpected power drain occurs.1 Consult this diagram to plan the wire connections.

Item Description Notes

Yellow wire You should connect this wire to the red wire before you connect both wires to the manual switch or circuit breaker.

Red wire You should connect this wire to the yellow wire so that it does not act as a physical standby switch.

1 A fuse (not included) You must install this fuse on the red wire before you connect the red wire to the yellow wire.

Manual switch (optional)

This switch is needed only if a circuit breaker is not available or if it provides a more convenient method of cutting power to the stereo.

Black wire Ground (-)

15 A fuse (not included)This fuse is required if you are not able to connect to power through a

15 A circuit breaker .

15 A circuit breaker If a circuit breaker is not available, you must connect a 15 A fuse on the yellow wire

2 Route all wires to the stereo wiring harness, the circuit breaker or switch, and the power source as necessary.Do not connect the wiring harness to the stereo until after you have made all of the bare wire connections.

3 Install all of the necessary fuses on the red and yellow wires.4 Connect the wiring harness to the stereo.When the circuit breaker or manual switch is closed, the stereo is always on. You can use the power button on the stereo or a connected chartplotter or remote control to place the stereo in a low-power standby mode if needed.NOTE: When you are not using the vessel, you should remove power to the stereo using the circuit breaker or manual switch to avoid draining the battery.


Connecting to Power Through an Ignition SwitchThis method of connection is used most often on ski boats, wake boats, and similar sport or recreational vessels where power to the engines is toggled often. For these installations, a quick standby and faster startup time is desired so that music can be stopped and begin playing again as quickly as possible after restarting the engines. When in standby mode, the stereo uses up to 100 mA, and you should connect the power wires through a circuit breaker or manual switch to avoid draining the battery when you are not using the boat.1 Consult this diagram to plan the wire connections.

Item Description Notes

Yellow wire You must connect this wire to the same power source as the ignition or ACC switch.

Red wire You must connect this wire to the ignition or ACC switch before you connect it to the same power source as the yellow wire.

1 A fuse (not included) You must install this fuse on the red wire before you connect the red wire to the ignition or ACC switch.

Ignition or ACC switchConnecting the red wire to this switch allows the stereo to enter a low-power standby mode when you turn off the engines, so it can start up faster when you turn on the engines again.

Black wire Ground (-)

15 A fuse (not included)

This fuse is required if you are not able to connect to power through a 15 A

circuit breaker .

15 A circuit breaker or manual switch

If a circuit breaker is not available, you must connect a 15 A fuse on the yellow wire. You should also connect the yellow wire to power using a manual switch, so you can remove power to the stereo when you are not using the boat.

2 Route all wires to the stereo wiring harness, the ignition or ACC switch, the circuit breaker, and the power source as necessary.Do not connect the wiring harness to the stereo until after you have made all of the bare wire connections.

3 Install all of the necessary fuses on the red and yellow wires.4 Connect the wiring harness to the stereo.When you turn on the ignition switch, the stereo turns on along with other accessory electronics. When you turn off the ignition switch, the stereo enters a low-power standby mode.NOTE: When you are not using the vessel for an extended period of time, you should remove power to the stereo using the circuit breaker or other manual switch on the yellow wire to avoid draining the battery.


Speaker ZonesYou can group speakers in one area into a speaker zone. This enables you to control the audio level of the zones individually. For example, you could make the audio quieter in the cabin and louder on deck.You can connect one 4 Ohm speaker per channel of each zone. One zone can support no more than two 4 Ohm speakers using the on-board amplifier. To use the RCA line outputs and the RCA subwoofer outputs, you must connect an external amplifier.You can set the balance, volume limit, tone, subwoofer level, subwoofer frequency, and name for each zone, and configure other zone-specific settings.

Speaker System Wiring Using a Line OutThis diagram illustrates a system installation with an external amplifier and subwoofer connected to zone 2 on the stereo using a line out. You can connect an amplifier and subwoofer to any or all of the available zones on the stereo.NOTE: You can connect speakers to the speaker wires for the internal stereo amplifier while using the line out on zones 1 and 2, although adjusting the volume affects both the speakers connected to the internal amplifier and the line out. This may result in uneven volume levels.
